Stile and Rail Doors

Daiek Woodworks pursues the manufacture of difficult, non standard or monumental woodwork in the daily course of business; our goal is to partner with (AWI) Millwork manufacturers for millwork fabrication that does not fit their standard production.

Attention to detail means everything in veneer and panel work.

Daiek Woodworks has the experience to create visual impact with excellence in contrasting specie, grain matching, production and finishing for all types of veneer and panel work.

Detailed veneer schedules are part of our standard protocol. Whether we are creating dozens of doors, large panels, or intricate jambs, the initial cutting and grain-matching part of the process must be accurate.

Daiek craftsmen assemble veneers into stile & rail faces when flitch stock veneer faces are specified. The next step will be to apply adhesive and register the face on the door component assembly and hot press.

These doors have come from the veneer press and are stacked for trimming, pre-fit and bevel and hardware machining. Each surface is carefully examined for a perfect finish.

We have the experience and the capacity to produce fire-rated doors of all sizes, delivered to your jobsite anywhere in the world.

Fire-rated core materials are part of the engineered construction

The door below is undergoing testing at the lab. It is mounted in a fireproof fixture that can produce a 2500 degree Fahrenheit fire behind it. The outside skin temperature is recorded and the door is tested to the time required. At this point in the test – about 30 minutes – you can see the bright fire under the door and in the chimney above the door. There is a bit of soot collecting at the top of the door and some smoke appearing along the hinge side of the door.

Daiek Woodworks has created several monumental doors lately for clients across the country – Florida, California, Virginia.

Large Pivoting Panels

These doors are 3″ thick x 8′ 8″ wide x 12′ tall. They are center mounted on fixed pivots and overlap when closed. The doors are the third-floor ballroom entry for the Conrad Hilton in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.

The doors were fabricated and shipped via dedicated trailer to the jobsite early in order to crane lift them into the jobsite prior to window install. This was the only way to get the doors into the building.

The new DaiekWoodworks.com has been updated with better image galleries, more content and a new mobile-friendly design for great usability on all devices.

At Daiek Woodworks, the craft of creating custom doors, paneling, cabinetry, curved moldings and custom millwork – all in-house, with skilled craftsmen – has been our strength and our passion for over 30 years.
